Regulations for Lent.


j. Ali the days of Lent, except Sun
days, are fast-days Of precept. 7f@@
2. The precept Of fasting implies the
abstaining from food, except at one
meal in the day, excluding also there
from the use of fesh-meat. -.s..,5
g.. BY Apostolic dispensation, how.
ever, the use of fesh-meat is allowed at
the one meal on all days except the
Wednesday and Friday of each week,
the Saturday of Ember week and the
last four days Of Lent. s 81 gzs
a. Both fish and flesh-meat are not to
be used at the same meal.
S. The use of lard in preparing food
is allowed, except on Ash-Wed nesday
and Good Friday. tl ii.
6. A collation. not exceeding the
fourth part of an ordinary meal may be
taken IN the evening; fish. butter,
cheese and eggs may be used at the col
lation. Custom permits also a cup OF
coffee, tea, or thin chocolate with a
small morsel of bread to be taken in the
morning. .7t
Z. The precept of fasting is binding
under pain of grisvous sin. For spe-
cial reasons the following classes OF
persons are exempt from the obligation
of the fast on one meal: LIST. Young
persons (under the age of twenty-one)
and those advanced in years; I'd, the in
firm; Sd, those who are engaged in
hard labor, or exausting duties; 4th,
women, who are in a state of pregnancy
or nursing children.
Those, who excuse themselves, or
seek exemption from this obligation,
should satisfy their consciences that
their indisposition to fasting is owing
to real inability and not to spirit OF
self indulgence. In all cases of doubt
they should advise with their pastor;
and all who are exempt should endea-
vor to supply as far they can for the
observance of the fast by other
penitential restrictions, and should, in
common with others, devote themselves
to prayer and recollection, and TO acts
Of sorrow and conjunction for sin,
agreeable with the spirit of the Church
in this holy season.
8. The precept of abstinence from
fesh-meat is binding on all except
young children and the sick.
9. Persons excused from fasting by
reason of tender age, hard labor, ETC.,
may use meat on all those days for
which abstinence is not enjoined.
BY special indult the use of fesh-meat
is again allowed on the SATURDAYS
throughout the year, except when a
fast-iay falls upon Saturday.
Pastors will hold special exercises Of
devotion in their several churches at
appointed times during Lent. Instruc-
tions of practical character upon the
christian duties, the nature Of the sac
raments, and the preparation for their
due reception should be given on those
occasions.
We recommend earnestly for all Fri
day evenings in Lent the Devotion of
the Way of the Cross.

The attention OF our Legislators is
called to the discrimination in the fees

nende that steps be taken during the
present session VI the Legislature to SO
regulate tue law in reference to fees
that the Magistrates OF one county shall
no receive more or greater fees than
nre allowed in another. The fees of
Justi 'es in Orushy aud Humboldt
counties, by an Act approved March Is.
1885, are as follows: For filing each
paper. rs cents; for issuing any PAPER
by which suit is commenced, 81; for
entering cause in docket, so cents; for
subpoena. each witness. p cents a.
ministering oath % cents, and for ether
services in proportion, while in Elko

es Of the Peace nre allowed fees ms fol.
lows: For filing each paper. 10 cents;
for issuing any paper by which suit is
~ NtbNht vi tulcIlu1 cause
in docket, 80 cents; for subpoena, each
witness, 10 cents; for administering
oath, Is cents, etc. Now if there is any
justice in allowing officers in some
counties in the State 66 4 per cent.
more for services rendered than il al.
lowed for the same service in other
counties. We fail to see it. Why should
AJustice OF the Peace in Humboldt
equity be entitled to receive &C a per
cent. more fees than nre allowed to one
In E!ko. IN adjoining county, for the

The law permits an unjust discrim-

Propria tie Legislation, aud we call upon

hand in order that existing laws may b,
70 modified that officers in the several
counties Of the State shall receive the
